Disgraceful Journalism again by MUEN

[mancitymick]

Can I just say I was unaware of this article until someone tweeted me about it, and even then I did not read it.
Now I have read it, I agree that it is a nonsense re-hash of a poor Mail story, and does us no credit.
It is clearly marked "Gossip", a tool we use to indicate stories that are in other sections of the press, but reading it, it appears to be the MEN's view, or even my view, which I can assure you, it is not.
I have spoken to the lad who is handling the sports section of the website today, and he has agreed to take the piece down.
In my opinion, this piece should not have been used at all, but when we did, it should have been flagged up as a Mail story.
City do this themselves, in the "What the Papers Say" section of their website, but this was a poor effort.
Apologies

Fair play to you.

Ditto - Takes a lot for someone who works for them to come out with an Apology. Great to see

Well said Stuart Brennan, not often a journalist will admit that their paper has made a mistake.

Pellegrini bad news for City's English players!
He's not even here yet let alone left English players out of his team.
No author to the MUEN article but it is virtually word for word to that of Joe Bernstein in todys Fail on Sunday.
How low can this so called newspaper stoop.

Why are you surprised at this anti city propaganda from the MUEN ?
